Street Fighter V |OTVIII| New Delayed Generation - Controversial Inputs

If other characters don't have Abigail specific combos that only work on him because of his size than I will have truly lost faith in Capcom.

I only caught a little bit of the trailer but man he is even bigger than expected. Bigger than Hugo, maybe?

Fighting style reminded me a bit of Haggar.

.... Yeah, that's not the design style I was expecting in the least. And it's VERY ODD to start off with. But... in a world where Hugo and Fang exist, along side Sim and Blanka... yeah. That can work out. It's great to see Capcom showing more reason for why this game didn't take the straight "HD games" look that Tekken 7 or Fightign Layer EX have. Whiel MVCI has a style that's more safe and acceptable, this looks like the crazy Capcom art that made the mooks from Captain Commando.

I was hoping they'd start teasing more of the other 2 DLC characters, but with Abby coming fairly soon, that's not so bad. HIs fighting style looks nice for a big guy in a SF (more Blunt Bruiser than grappler), and I definitely can't say he doesn't have a unique silhouette.

I didn't have much drive to play ed, even if he does look kinda cool. Haven't even labbed it up with him even once.

Abigail however looks like a lot of fun, definitely taking him for a spin.

So it looks like he has a move that can dodge fireballs
He has a running STRIKE and not grab
He seems to have some sort of a command throw?
His throws seem to place you pretty far away.
He did a v-reversal and then into a pretty slow strike and then another throw?

Wait I think he has a parry.

And his v-trigger lets you wallbounce I guess?

Oh man he's going to be that dude that makes people pissed.

I don't know what I was expecting, but it wasn't that, LOL.

His ridiculously small head relative to the rest of his body is super off-putting to me.

He doesn't look like he belongs with the rest of the cast. He's way too cartoony, and something about his model looks janky to me.

Eh, he didn't look like what I expected but they definitely made him different than Hugo. I don't like the archetype of huge arms + tiny head but I might warm up to him.

I'm finding it difficult to disagree with this. He looks awful. Can he even be jumped over?

Battleborn was dead on arrival and SFV is on ESPN right now.

I can

Because people play sf, people are playing sf right now.

Ono is making porn reddits and then yelling out that they exist because of how unpopular his game is.

Battleborn is a very specific dumpster fire.

Abigail is just a big muscley man

Not sure if this was the case before, but the background behind Zeku's silhouette doesn't match any stage in the game as far as i can tell.

It was a joke response over a late reveal of a terrible looking character after a weekend of pretty good fighting game announcements is all, fellas.

Calling something battleborn is fighting words

I'm pretty sure its technically a hate crime, it certain circles it will get you jumped

Joke or no, I just find it funny that anyone with a KOF avatar is slinging shade about anyone else's game being irrelevant.

I still don't think the community for that game fights hard enough to keep it alive and it deserves way more time, but SNK has to put its foot on the pedal for support circuit wise.

How does abigail look terrible though?
I mean he's ugly, but he looks very well made and a lot of fun to play.

Ugly's fine, Rufus is ugly but has a charm to him. Birdie is ugly too, but he's got perhaps some of the coolest animations in the game and has swagger. This guy actually looks so comically bad that overdone muscle mods do not look out of place next to him. It's a poor look imo.

I was hoping the game would get any kind of announcement during grand finals, but nah.

Rufus has as much charm as a pile of shit.

Rufus is the worst

And he's even worse, because his cool actually charming Wu tang ass black guy design he had was way cooler and he's gone.
